IMPROVEMENT IN' PRINTERS GALLEYS.

'.lO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONGERN:

`Be it known that I, E. LONG, of Plymouth, in the count invented certain new and useful Improvements on Printersis a.. fu'11, clear, and exact description thereof, reference bei letters of reference marked thereon.

Figure 1 represents an end view. Figure 2 represents a plan `4view and Figure` 3 represents a'plan view with the. plate B taken oli'. In the annexed drawings making part of this specification, constructed in any, ofthe known and-usual w'ztys', tailed groove, or one in the shape` ofen inverted y of Marshall, and in the State of Indiana., have Galley; and do hereby declare that the following ng had to the accompanying drawings, and to the A represents a printers' galley, which may be except that in one edge of its face is formed either a. dovet T` B represents a. plate or jaw, which is provided with two diagonal slots i d. This plate or .jaw lies over thated-ge of the galley which is grooved,and headed pins C C confine' the two togethensaid pins passing through the slots ol d, and intothe groove e, their lower ends being conformed to the shape o f the-bottoms of said grooves. By forcing the pins toward eachother, they move inthe slots and groove, and draw the jaw B back from the form, and by separating them,4 they cause the jaw to move up and' clamp the form between it and the other side-of the' galley. As the two ends move independently of each other, the jaw readily conforms itself-'to the form, soas to press lequztllyand with sulcient pressure upon it to keep it in its place. l I

Having thus fullydescribed my invention, what I clhim as new, The slotted jaw B, used in combination with the galley, substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing, I hav'e hereuntoset my hand, this 19th day of October, 1867.
